Beyond the Leash
The world seems to be quiet and out of its mind
Not to mention the words that aren’t kind
Messages that won’t complete the good thought
Bringing cold air and the barren nature she sought
Being of the kindness of men’s being
Not often lord’s hope comes and bring
Kings trade merchants, watch them waft by
Crazy the Earth rotates, but does not cry
My hour has come, the trees do color between the lines
Blue, not green, with envy they cast their shines
Open the fields grow and the times have bewildered
Nothing can shock more than words that cindered
Work those hearts of mercy to bring you peace
As there isn’t anything that offers beyond the leash
Coping the loss isn’t on the agenda today
I must leaven my heart, together we might sway
The total being of mindless works in play
I say, you can purchase my soul, with love, I say
Your heart is full of nonfiction, its true
May the world beat another ray beyond what we do
